I had to feed my king pinkies and after it became a serious pain in my you-know-what, I decided to just breed my own. Two Rubbermaid tubs and two water bottles will set you back about $14. Get the 15qt latch toppers and water bottles are $1.87 ea. from Walmart. Then go find 2-3 females and one male that looks really busy( make sure he looks mature too
). After a few weeks you will probably have more than enough. Feed what you can and freeze the rest. It really is pretty easy. With a small breeding project you may have to still source out a pinkie every now and then, depending on how your colony grows. Just a suggestion, if all else fails

Here is a close up of the holes I drilled. A $5 bag of food will last about 2 months when you start off with only a few mice.
